Our long national nightmare is finally over, y’all: The newest zero sugar Monster Energy flavor is here. Welcome to the team, Monster Ultra Blue Hawaiian Energy.
It’s been almost four months since we last got our hands on a brand new Monster Ultra flavor. I’m anxious to see how this one compares to the last two years of Monster Energy flavor innovation. Will this live up to the very solid Ultra Fantasy Ruby Red? Or will this be another passing-grade Ultra Vice Guava? One thing’s for sure, Ultra Blue Hawaiian is going to have to work to dethrone my #1, S-tier, G.O.A.T. Monster Energy flavor: Ultra Strawberry Dreams, accept no substitutes.
When this flavor first leaked online a few months ago, I wished upon a star that Ultra Blue Hawaiian would be Monster’s version of the Mountain Dew Infinite Swirl flavor aka Pineapple Berry. That blend of pineapple and strawberry(?) is spectacular.
But, per Monster Energy’s website, the official flavor of this new Monster flavor is “Light & Easy-Drinking Tropical Blend.” That’s not very helpful. The full description mentions “a killer combo of exotic Polynesian fruit flavors.” That’s also not very helpful! There’s a whole list of fruits native to Hawai’i and exactly zero of them are pictured on the can design itself. It seems like the only way to figure out what this tastes like is gonna be tasting it. Read on for the full review.
